The result of a long history, Burgundy and its wines are known worldwide. Chardonnay is a native grape variety of the area. Chardonnay perfectly matches the terroir of Burgundy: poor soils or calcareous marl, perfect exposure but a temperate climate. As a result the sugar content can reach a high level whilst maintaining a balance of fruit and acidity.

The Louis Latour 2016 Chardonnay is a lovely white Burgundy. It displays a medium straw colour with scents of lemon, pears, apples, vanilla and hazelnuts. The flavour also reveals those elements with "great vivacity" due to the crisp acid levels balanced with the fruit and the flavour of minerals from the limestone soil. (UK)

Bourgogne Chardonnay 2014 - Decanter - December 2016 - Recommended

Rich,
upfront fruit that is grapey in a Muscat-like way; has enchanting appeal. More
exuberant than classy, but a nice wine which holds up well.

Bourgogne Chardonnay 2010 - gismondiwine.com - February 2012 - 88/100This is one of the best Latour Bourgogne Blancs we have tasted in years. Honest, inexpensive, ‘Burgundy'-like with a fresh floral nose flecked hints of butter and green apple skin. The palate is fresh and lean with a touch of texture and richness from the malolactic fermentation and freshness, complexity and persistence of flavour throughout. Well done and affordable. Great for an assortment of West Coast fish. (Canada)

Chardonnay Bourgogne 2009 - The Chatham Daily News - August 2011 - "Crisp, refreshing flavour"The dry character of this Chardonnay gives it its French accent. The crisp, refreshing flavour suggests green apple and pear, lending it a more subtle personality than the more aggressively oaked or riper, richer styles of Chardonnay popularized in hot spots like California and Australia. (Canada)

Chardonnay Bourgogne 2009 - Calgary Herald - March 20th 2011 - ""Impressive"Impressive.This fresh, citrusy sipper is delicate and slightly creamy; you may detect some apple and wet stone flavours, too. This is a Chardonnay that will please most white wine fans; enjoy it on a sunny afternoon with mom, at a casual dinner with friends or while gossiping with your best gal pals.
Drink: Now, with a variety of fish, roast chicken or turkey, mild cheeses, egg or creamy pasta dishes. A versatile food wine. Cork closure.
Serve chilled.

Bourgogne Chardonnay 2007 - The Globe & Mail - December 2009 - "Elegant choice"Widely available from British Columbia to the Atlantic is a very decent French white that's a versatile choice for holiday entertaining. Louis Latour Chardonnay 2007 is the latest vintage of a well-priced white Burgundy. Unlike hot-climate chardonnays that can taste sweet and too cloying from overexposure to oak, this relatively affordable one from the chardonnay capital of the world speaks of its region, with understated fruit, a subtle seam of mineral-like flavour and balancing acidity. It would be an elegant choice for a cocktail reception and a good partner for a wide range of foods. By Beppi Crosariol, USA.

Bourgogne Chardonnay 2007 - Gismoonwine (Canada) - July 7th 2009 - 88/100A fine introductory style European chardonnay made by the legendary producer of Corton Charlemagne. The nose is a light floral affair with notes of minerals and spice. Fairly smooth and full-bodied on the palate with delicate fruit flavours and a hint of nutty butter in the finish. Just enough complexity for the price.

Bourgogne Chardonnay 2007 - Thestar.com - July 22nd 2009 - 89/100Certainly one of the best- value white Burgundies in our marketplace, this has wonderful consistency year to year. Aromas of minerals, lime, lemon and a hint of hazelnut lead into crisp citrus and apple flavours. The minerality shows through cleanly on the lemony, lime peel finish. Food suggestion: Wine-poached mussels. By Gord Stimmell, Canada.
